"We have bought some gifts for you all. See what you like." Sheng Ruming said and then fled with Luo Lixi to the second floor. If he could, he would have carried her upstairs but because of her bad health condition, he refrained from doing it.
Wei Airan saw the boxes with silence and couldn't help but tell Aunt Lin her thoughts, "Aunty, look at them. It's not even months yet my son doesn't even leave my daughter in law for me."
"Madam, they are newlyweds… it's understandable?" Aunt Lin mumbled.
"Ahhh, suddenly I feel like I should leave the villa for them." Then, Wei Airan chuckled knowingly and murmured as she took out a wooden fan from the gift box and fanned herself, "After all, they need 'space' to deepen their relationship. Only then can I have a grandchild!"
"Yes, madam." Aunt Lin nodded with a straight face as she helped Wei Airan unbox the gifts. But when they were done, Wei Airan seemed confused, "Why does everything look so jammed in the box? Also, seafood and freshwater fish? What kind of gift is it? Where did they go by the way?"
"I… don't know." Aunt Lin replied as she saw the things in the gift box in silence. She picked up one thing and pondered, 'Why does everything look so familiar?'
…
After Sheng Ruming brought her to his room, Luo Lixi asked in irritation as she folded her arms on her chest, "Why did you say that? Honeymoon? When did we? Or perhaps in your dream?"
Sheng Ruming turned to her and replied as he hooked his fingers with his, "If you are sad that it's a lie, how about I make it into reality? But I will need some weeks. After sorting out something, shall we go then?"
Luo Lixi raised her eyes and asked with a sneer, "What if I didn't wake up so early? What would you have done then?"
Sheng Ruming closed up to her and stared at her face. He raised his hand and ran his fingers through her cheeks. Luo Lixi got shivers from his touch and tried to back away but he stepped ahead and caught her waist.
"Then… I would have extended our honeymoon from days to months or perhaps… years? But luckily… you are fine now." Sheng Ruming whispered as he rubbed her lips. Then he grabbed her cheek and lifted her face.
In the next second, Luo Lixi was given a mind-blowing kiss. Her legs became jelly but the man caught her tongue and played for a long time.
After they were done, Luo Lixi placed her hands on his chest as both of them panted for breath heavily. She laid her forehead on his chest, right on top of his heart and murmured as she closed her eyes, "Don't lie again, Ruming. I don't like it and hate it the most whenever I have to lie. Especially, about Lixiang's case...."
Sheng Ruming chuckled as he picked her up and placed her on the bed. Then he stared down at her and said while his eyes darkened, "I don't lie all the time. Just that, I don't want to give worry to anyone. Rather than watching your sad face, I would rather keep all the pain in me."
When Luo Lixi nodded, Sheng Ruming thought of something as he kneeled down on the floor on one knee and asked gravely, "If you really don't want me to lie… then is it okay if I hide some matters from you? Only the ones who will give you needless worry and pain?"
Luo Lixi stared at the nervous man and went into deep thoughts. After thinking for some time, she returned her attention to him and softly said, "Well, fine then. But don't hide any crucial thing from me!"
"I will think!" Sheng Ruming bit her nose and stood up.
"Ouch! You dog!" Luo Lixi cried out as she rubbed her nose and saw he went to his closet and took out a set of suits. Then he started taking off his clothes. Luo Lixi blinked her eyes and turned around. His exposed skin gave her lewd thoughts which shouldn't accelerate further.
Sheng Ruming chuckled at her action and said seductively, "There is no use of your shyness now. Come and help me wear the suit. You should at least perform the duty of my wife once, right?"
"You are going somewhere?..." As Luo Lixi asked, she turned around but upon watching him taking off his pants, she turned back in a second, "You… " Again she turned back and tried to ignore his lower part.
As she set her eyes above, Luo Lixi went up to him and helped him wear his shirts and jacket. Sheng Ruming saw her cheeks turning pink and murmured, "After some days, it will become normal."
Luo Lixi didn't make any sound and quietly helped him. The man enjoyed her clumsy fingers which bumped into here and there. After she was done, she walked out with her. As they went down to the first floor, Aunt Lin looked up.
The old housekeeper smiled and asked them, "Young master, young madam, what will you like for breakfast?"
"Make something for her. I will go to the company now." After saying that, Sheng Ruming turned to Luo Lixi and said, "Take care. If you want, just give me a call. I will try to come back soon."
"Hm." Luo Lixi nodded. Thus Sheng Ruming left while she gazed back at his departure. But as soon as Sheng Ruming left, the smile he had been putting on vanished in a moment.
…
Aunt Lin walked up to her and asked, "Do you want to join Madam Wei for breakfast?"
"Sure." As Luo Lixi nodded.
Aunt Lin said, "Then, follow me."
Thus, Luo Lixi ended up going to the back garden. Then both of them started to walk towards the inside of the villa and walked to the right side. Luo Lixi curiously watched everything and followed Aunt Lin closely.
There was a long corridor straightened towards the backyard. As they made their way towards there, Luo Lixi smelled a very sweet scent of fresh flowers.
As soon as she walked out, Luo Lixi's eyes widened. At the back of the main building of the Sheng Villa, there was the same big garden. Various kinds of flower species were there but now, the whole place was shrouded with pink and red big roses.
'So beautiful!' Luo Lixi thought so. When she swept a glance, her eyes fell on the shed.
Under it, many small sofas were placed and a table in the middle. It was for the purpose of admiring the flowers but now, Wei Airan had made a regular routine to come here to enjoy her tea.
Today, she thought of having her breakfast here. When she saw Luo Lixi, she motioned Luo Lixi to go beside her.
"Aunty, how have you been?" Luo Lixi murmured as she stood beside Wei Airan. Then, the maids came and placed her breakfast on the table.
Wei Airan smiled gleefully, "Child, don't you think it's too late to ask it now?"
"... Yes." Luo Lixi turned awkward as she looked down on the ground. Watching her depressed mood, Wei Airan chuckled as she tugged at Luo Lixi's arm and forced the young lady to sit down, "Of course it is beautiful. I have bought many precious species of flowers and spent most of my time here, looking after my little trees."
Wei Airan said with pride as if those were the treasures of her life!
"I can see that." Luo Lixi nodded her head. Then, she turned her eyes to the flowers and smiled, "They are really well cared."
Wei Airan turned to Luo Lixi and asked as she paused her action of drinking rose tea for a few seconds, "Do you like perfume?" Handmade rose ones?"
Luo Lixi nodded, "I used to apply sometimes when I had attended parties or other occasions."
"Good then." Wei Airan said and then turned to Aunt Lin. The latter understood her intention and brought a large tray where more than 50 bottles with each having unique colour were placed.
Under Wei Airan's permission, she took one by one and tried several on the back of her palm. As Luo Lixi took deep breaths, she felt her soul getting cleaned. Her body relaxed as she glanced at her mother in law who was busy taking small sips of her rose tea.
With a smile, she also joined Wei Airan and admired the vast garden of flowers. Also, getting a lot of information on handmade perfume was a bonus.
The next thing they did, was to experiment and make many perfumes together. Wei Airan was very happy to finally get her daughter in law all to herself. She taught a bit of perfume making to Luo Lixi in the secret glass room of hers and explained everything to her.
